"Portrait of Zelie Courbet" is a notable 19th-century painting by the French artist Thomas Couture, renowned for his academic painting style and as a teacher of several important artists of the era. The portrait, which depicts Zélie Courbet, the sister of the famous realist painter Gustave Courbet, is an example of Couture's mastery in capturing the character and elegance of his subjects. The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for the connection between the sitter and her brother, whose own contributions to the art world were substantial and influential.

The painting is characterized by its fine detail, the soft rendering of Zelie Courbet's features, and the use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and realism. Couture's technique reflects the academic standards of the time, emphasizing skilled brushwork and a polished finish. The portrait is also a reflection of the social and cultural milieu of the period, providing insights into the fashion and aesthetics of the French bourgeoisie.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is believed to have been completed during the mid-19th century, a period when Thomas Couture was at the height of his artistic powers. The painting's provenance, current location, and exhibition history are important aspects of its legacy and contribute to its status within the canon of French academic art.
